My Flight Suit Pocket, Dad Edition (Paperback): A Heartwarming Children's Book About Deployment and Staying Connected

A heartwarming picture book created to support military children through deployments, extended work trips, and time apart from a parent.

Written by a therapist, military spouse, and mom, My Flight Suit Pocket tells the story of a child who receives one of the many pockets from their father’s flight suit. The pocket becomes a special place to keep notes, cards, pictures, and small reminders of love.

As the child fills “my flight suit pocket” with meaningful keepsakes, the story gently shows how connection can stay strong even when a military parent is far from home. Comforting, meaningful, and easy for children to understand, this book helps military families talk about separation, love, and staying close no matter the distance.
